Erma Bombeck is one of Americas favorite humorous authors. Her book When you Look Like your Passport Photo, it's Time to go Home is about her traveling to many places in the world with her husband and her children. There is no plot to her story or resolution. She just has a brief summary of the places she visited and the funny incidents that happened. Her humor can be somewhat explicit, she also jokes on the other couples that she has traveled with on how ridiculous it was that people brought so many rolls of film for a trip when they couldn't just take in the beauty of the scenery and remember it instead of taking over a hundred pictures in a day. At some of the places she traveled the food she ate didn't quiet satisfy her stomach most of the time. She would vomit a lot while her husband went and saw all the scenery. Erma's humor was funny because shes a complete smart aleck and she makes fun of ordinary people doing ordinary things. She can get bored by the easiest things. She loves to eat and on one of her trips she had to buy food and everyday wasn't a good day to buy the food because there was some event that required all the food at the market.
The contribution that Erma has for America is her sense of humor and her knowledge of the different cultures that are not written in a history book. She experienced all of these crazy adventures in real life. Erma can take a bad situation and turn it into something funny,like when she dressed up nice for church she ended up finding out that the women went topless. Her personality shows that she is laid back and doesn't let the big or little things bother her like when she went on trips with annoying people and she never made a big deal about them but just wrote about them. That can show America to be more laid back and have fun with life. Americans could learn so much from from Erma and her personality. She not afraid to voice her opinion but she does know when not to say some of the things that are on her mind, like any time something bother her she told her husband that it did when it was people she didn't know she kept to her self. I recommend this book to anyone who loves humor and can have a perverted mind and doesn't like a book with a plot.
